Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate gets first review, producer talks game length

The first review of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate is printed in the latest issue of Spanish magazine Hobby Consolas. While details from the verdict are practically non-existent, we do know that the game received a 93% score – this is backed up by director Jose Luis Marquez.

Producer David Cox has been chatting about Mirror of Fate’s length on Twitter. One tidbit from the Hobby Consolas review claims that it will take just 9 hours to beat the game. Cox, however, says that figure is “total bollocks”.

On average, it took 16 hours to beat during testing – without reaching 100% completion. Cox did acknowledge that it may be possible for players to finish in 9 hours – he personally has been able to wrap things up in 8 hours – but doing so is “exceptional”.
